FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Image Sensing Systems Announces Second Quarter Financial Results

 

Saint Paul, Minn., August 4, 2011 ― Image Sensing Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: ISNS), announced today the results for its first six months of its fiscal year and second quarter ended June 30, 2011.

 

Revenue for the first six months of 2011 was $14.2 million compared to $12.0 million for the same period of 2010, while revenue for the second quarter of 2011 was $8.1 million compared to $6.6 million for the same period a year ago. Revenue from royalties was $5.7 million in the first six months of 2011 compared to $5.8 million in 2010 and $3.0 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to $3.2 million in the same period of 2010. Product sales were $8.5 million for the first six months of 2011 compared to $6.2 million in 2010 and were $5.1 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to $3.4 million in the same period in 2010. World-wide, RTMS and CitySync product sales in the first six months of 2011 were $4.1 million and $3.4 million, respectively and for the second quarter of 2011 were $3.1 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

 

Net loss for the first six months of 2011 was $(598,000) or $(0.12) per share compared to net income of $769,000 or $0.17 per diluted share for the same period in 2010. Net income for our 2011 second quarter was $210,000 or $0.04 per diluted share compared to $367,000 or $0.08 per diluted share for the same period in 2010. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding intangible asset amortization net of tax, net loss for the first six months of 2011 was $(52,000) or $(0.01) per diluted share and net income for the second quarter was $484,000 or $0.10 per diluted share.

 

Ken Aubrey, CEO, said, “While our second quarter results improved from a difficult first quarter, they still were below our expectations. We haven’t climbed as quickly as we anticipated to what we believe should be normal levels of revenue. As in the first quarter, we saw revenue lumpiness continue- RTMS on the upside and CitySync on the downside. Royalties also ran below our expectations. Our overall product gross margins improved but remain slightly lower than our targets. As stated previously, we expect margin improvement as increased revenues offset fixed costs and our integration and process improvements gain traction.

 

“Our Hybrid product development continues toward our targeted Q1 2012 launch,” continued Mr. Aubrey.

 

 
 

 

Non-GAAP Information

 

We provide certain non-GAAP financial information as supplemental information to GAAP amounts. This non-GAAP information excludes the impact, net of tax, of amortizing the intangible assets from the 2007 EIS asset acquisition and the 2010 CitySync acquisition and may exclude other non-recurring items. Management believes that this presentation facilitates the comparison of our current operating results to historical operating results. Management uses this non-GAAP information to evaluate short-term and long-term operating trends in our core operations. Non-GAAP information is not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for or an alternative to GAAP financial measures and may not be computed the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies.
